The theme that runs through my life and therefore my work, is the marriage of our spiritual and physical realities. This line of questioning is very weighty stuff, however I know that it also child’s-play. Therefore, I try to approach my work with an openness that allows my subconscious, non-judgemental mind to operate.

I like the electric buzz of working from the model. Using an alchemical process involving ink, acrylic, emulsion, pastels, and sometimes fresco, I add and subtract to make expressive paintings which combine observation, memory, humour, culture, the history of art and a touch of autobiography.
